Team replica bike comes with 7 speed drivetrain very similar to the 6 speed system used by Sam and Troy. No one wants 10 speed that they seem to be forcing upon us for dh!

Full build limited to 250 worldwide, price banded around at the press conference was $10,000. Think I'll pass on that!

Depending on the price, I'll be all over the frame only option. They seem to have made some slight changes to the front triangle, I wonder if it has better compatibility with different forks now?

The BB has dropped 5mm ( or more to the point, you can drop it via a setting somewhere).

Price of the Frame is rumoured to be $7 000, nothing on UK price as of yet.
 
I laughed at that comment, tell you what it really does shock me how fast and how much control these girls/lads have and managing to stay mostly upright, i feel out of control at times going at half those speeds on less technical stuff lol

O..M..G...Gwin is a machine, how on earth is that possible..
